Help Neeed with Infection

I dont there is a way to do this. If you are doing a campaign map, try making a vehicle the haven, and they have to drive the vehicle through the map.

 

Set the spawn sequence for the havens in order from 0 onwards?

 

That doesn't work for infection.

My only thought is to put a haven at the end of the map and make it linear. If its a giant map, you could break it up into smaller maps and make it a campaign.

 

Download the updated infection variant from Matchmaking, then set spawn sequences.

 

Oh, snap. Thats right. They don't have safe havens anymore.
Err... you should be able to just play until you get regular infection, then use that with havens enabled?

 

Ordered Safe Havens have never been added. That's a pretty big update; Jeremiah would have put it in one of his changelist threads if it were actually performed.

OP, here's a solution. It's risky, but it could work.

Make your Havens Trip Mines that players can't detonate. Make it so that only two are spawned at start; the rest delay-spawn according to the order you want them to activate in. When a new Haven spawns, a movable item should spawn above the oldest Haven, detonating it (and thereby removing it from the map). So basically, the map plays like this.

0 seconds
There are two Trip Mine Havens on the map. The first is active.

1 minute (example time)
A new Trip Mine Haven spawns further down the map. A Crate spawns above the first Trip Mine Haven and detonates it, destroying it. It does not respawn.

2 minutes (example time)
A new Trip Mine Haven spawns further down the map. A Crate spawns above the second Trip Mine Haven (since the first is already gone) and detonates it, destroying it. It does not respawn.

...And so on. Only problem is, your map's limited to roughly 3-minute rounds. Basically, you're forcing the game to only use the "current" Havens, because the previous ones are destroyed and the new ones haven't yet spawned.

 

You can actually spawn objects after 3 minutes through a complicated process. Basically have the object spawn at 170 seconds then fall into water or a kill ball or something then at 180 something spawns under it so when it spawns again 340 seconds into the game it falls onto the map instead of into the killball. You can even iterate this to get really long spawn times, but it will take a lot of work and only works in some situations.

 

Oh snap - I haven't been playing infection for a while I see...

When did they get rid of haven?

 

You don't need it to not respawn if you find a way to kill it immediately after it spawns, once it's no longer needed. But that'll probably involve the construction of some tricky mechanism. :\

 

You could lay the havens out where you want them, then go into customs a few times to see if the order stays the same. If it does, rearrange them to your liking.

 

Is Run-Time Minimum set to 0? Or is it set to the number of Trip Mines on the map?

Infection could also be forcing the Mines to spawn, since they're Havens. I've never seen that kind of behavior before, but I've never specifically tested it, either.

Haven order is determined randomly at run-time. Several games do have situations where hills always have the same attributes, but Infection is not one of them.
